Chhattisgarh vs Assam Chances of Winning
Chhattisgarh ended their fourth game in a fourth consecutive draw as they played against Railways last time around. Chhattisgarh were, undeniably, the favorites for the win from the start and they were certainly on course for once before they were thwarted by a lack of time. Batting first, they scored a whopping 500 runs before declaring the score as Sanjeet Desai, Amandeep Khare, Anuj Tiwary, Ajay Mandal and Aayush Pandey did really well with scores of 110, 88, 84, 66 and 46 runs, respectively. Railways’ chase was not particularly effective as they amassed 351 but were still a long way off the lead. Chhattisgarh added fuel to the fire by scoring an extra 129 and were on track for the win but an unfortunate shortage of time resulted in a draw.
Assam drew with Tamil Nadu in their last outing even though their batting performance, in particular, was quite good. Tamil Nadu scored 338 batting first but Assam took the lead with a massive gap, having garnered 445 runs. Skipper Denish Das top-scored with 109 runs while Swarupam Purkayastha, Sibsankar Roy and Rishav Das scored 90, 69 and 54 runs, respectively. Tamil Nadu were doing better at the second time of asking but by the time they piled on 217/2, the sides were out of time and had to settle for a deadlock.

Chhattisgarh vs Assam Betting Tips
Chhattisgarh to score high before first dismissal
Aayush Pandey has been a consistent opener for Chhattisgarh throughout the season but his opening partners have changed. He has opened alongside Rishabh Tiwari for the last two matches but regardless of these changes, the team has had splendid results at the front with first partnerships of 43, 13, 124, 95, 8 and 45 runs. This is no mean feat and the fact that they have achieved this level of consistency despite the shifts in opening batters is remarkable, and they are on course to set up another big partnership in the next match.
Chhattisgarh vs Assam Toss Prediction
Shaheed Veer Narayan Singh International Stadium has hosted two matches prior to this game in the tournament this season and both games were inconclusive, having ended in draws. The vote is divided between the toss winners for batting and fielding first, having opted to do so once each. The surface seems to be more conducive for teams batting first since the first innings totals have been competitive on both occasions, making it the preferred choice.

Chhattisgarh vs Assam Betting Odds
Chhattisgarh to have a better opening partnership than Assam
Both teams have had relatively competitive opening partnerships so far but the consistency that Chhattisgarh’s openers have shown is unparalleled. While Parvej Musaraf and Rishav Das have scored 49, 1, 17, 9 and 45 runs for Assam before the first dismissal, Aayush Pandey and Rishabh Tiwari have been in a different plane with stands of 43, 13, 124 and 95 runs for Chhatigarh’s opening wicket. Based on their performances in the tournament thus far, it is evident that the latter have much more firepower to tackle Assam’s bowlers and outperform their first wicket.
